Thanks for the link.
I will make sure others see that video.

I live 9 streets from the ocean in San Diego. I can stand another 2 degrees increase on annual temp. Or decrease or whatever.

Like 2 genders?

There are 2 sexes.
Gender refers to language.
Don’t participate in the twisting of the language.
It only helps advance the agenda.

Very good, Lurkinanloomin...

It is well worth the time. You get to see good material well presented debunking the hoax, and you get confirmation the bomb hit the target by the enraged rude behavior of the left.

When they have no argument, they go right to ad hominem, which validates that they cannot refute you.

Those were the good old days when there were a few sensible democrats.

Yes, Dixie actually was a trained scientist and a proponent for nuclear power. I am confident that she would not have gone along with this climate change nonsense. Inslee is a lawyer and political insider.

The next President is Donald Trump and he will be elected in 2020. I doubt he will make it a priority because it is fake.

Exact thought that came to mind when I read the opening snippet and recalled the early 90s when Dixie Lee would appear occasionally on Limbaugh’s show to explain science to the great unwashed masses who were being led astray on environmental matters of every kind.

GMTA!! Have a blessed Friday, my FRiend...

He’s known as Jay Dimslee in these parts.

In the link I was provided above, his conduct angered me.

This is a guy who has been INVITED to speak, and was treated shabbily.

As an American, I was embarrassed by the behavior of the Leftists there.

Watch this video:
Lord Moncton appears before US Congress in 2010 and is roundly abused by Democrat hacks
Go to the 14:30 mark of the video to see this piece of crap scumbag in action.

Thanks for the link. Lord Moncton gave an excellent presentation as always. Only a scumbag ambulance chaser like Inslee could make such an ass out of himself and lose no sleep over it. There is a special place in hell for idiots like Inslee.

You win the Internet for the day.

The problem is his likely replacement, Bob “Sideshow Bob” Ferguson, the current part time AG.

The corollary to this is that it is a priority to prevent massive out of control wildfires in our forests as they add so much CO2 to the atmosphere! This means building firebreaks in the forests and letting the loggers go in and manage the forests in a sustainable way, clearing out dead wood as needed. I am sure the governor will now support this approach!

(Right!)

[jacknhoo]

Thank you very much for that. I am going to bookmark this and use it.

Wow, Jay Inslee is a piece of...work, eh!

I really appreciate the insight you provided.

The video that followed that video is fairly informative too:

Professor Ivar Giaever, the 1973 Nobel Prizewinner for Physics trashes the global warming/climate change/extreme weather pseudoscientific clap-trap and tells Obama he is “Dead Wrong”. This was the 2012 meeting of Nobel Laureates:

The 2015 speech by Prof Giaever is here:

As an American with Lord Monckton as a guest...I was embarassed. That man needs a kick in the derrierrre..

[rlmorel]

Hi.

“Jay Inslee is the idiotic governor of Washington.”

Yep.

I had not seen this disgusting display of arrogance by the Leftist Inslee. He is without question a real “obamahole”.

> The science is clear. <

---

The aspect of this issue that concerns me is the assertion that the “science is clear” is defended with on the basis that 90% of scientists agree. (Remember: The entire world disagreed with Copernicus and Galileo.) The appeal to the number who agree is a political appeal, not a scientific appeal.

An appeal to numbers is not how science works. When one publishes a scientific paper, it should be a given that the data would be available to all who wished to examine it. In the current scenario, my response would be, “Show me the data!”

Once that data is available, others can analyze it and propose other theories that are consistent with the data. The fact that many science-types who subscribe to global warming have refused to publish their data tells me that their data, perhaps, is consistent with theories other than global warming. (Example: When told by the court to reveal his data to the defendant, the plaintiff proceeded to withdraw the case so that he didn’t have to reveal his data.)

Were you to say, “Show me the data”, the response would be “You can’t understand the data.” That is true. BUT, in all the population of the USA and/or the world, you should be able to find at least one person who CAN understand the data and CAN explain in terms that you can understand.

Until the full measure of global warming data are available, I will consider the science of global warming to be fraudulent.

It made my blood boil when I saw it.
